The height of safety
Kinross Farm, a family-owned business has been producing high-quality eggs for over 50 years in Victoria’s Great Dividing Range. Dedicated to ensuring the well-being of their hens and the quality of their eggs, they manage every aspect of production, from raising day-old chicks to packaging. Recently, they constructed a purpose-built, state-of-the-art grading floor to enhance their rigorous quality control and assurance processes.
To address the challenges posed by inaccessible areas between their high-tech egg grading conveyor belts, Kinross Farm approached Anchor Safe for a tailored solution. Understanding the critical role that accessibility plays in maintaining their stringent quality management processes, we designed, supplied, and installed a modular platform crossover system. This solution enhanced the farm’s operations while ensuring optimal accessibility.
Delivering results from top to bottom
The Anchor Safe team designed, supplied & installed a platform crossover system, this system comprised of lightweight, non-corrosive aluminium componentry for minimal maintenance and superior durability. Being an advanced egg sorting facility, the client required a safety system that ensured the smooth day to day running of all systems and processes without restricting access to all areas of the conveyor belts. Our solution allowed safe access to four different areas, with varying heights and tight areas around the conveyer belts. This was a great demonstration of how Anchor Safe can tailor our solutions to achieve a great result with our modular stair and platform systems.
Our crossover platforms are designed with prefabricated, modular components, enabling rapid installation and ensuring compliance with all relevant Australian standards, including AS 1657:2018. The system’s adjustable design allowed us to tailor it specifically to the unique requirements of Kinross Farm’s advanced egg sorting facility, ensuring the smooth running of all systems and processes.
This project is a testament to how Anchor Safe’s modular stair and platform systems can be adapted to meet complex safety and operational needs, providing robust, long-lasting solutions that support the efficient operation of high-tech facilities like Kinross Farm’s grading floor.
